I absolutely loved the kit! It’s perfectly curated and I most certainly will be coming back to NetGalley for more of them!

I loved reading Red, White, & Royal Blue with my book club so I was so happy to get a Book Club Kit for One Last Stop. This book was so fantastic. It checked off all of the boxes for my book club: Romance (check); New adult (check); Contemporary (check); and inclusive/Lesbian (check). It is so helpful to have premade questions in this Book Club Kit for the monthly meeting with my group. It's so appreciated.

This Book Club Kit has so many great aspects. There are so many great talking points that I am excited to be able to use to talk in depth about the book. The playlist fits the theme and different aspects of the book so well and I hope to be able to make the recipe soon though it already looks very delicious. Overall another great resource for Book Clubs from We Are Bookish. Thank you and Net Galley for this fantastic kit.

A great little guide that provides insight into McQuiston’s process, and also individual perception of the book! I love all the One Last Stop content I can get, so I completely loved this.

I absolutely adored One Last Stop - so I jumped at the chance to use this Book Club Kit. The further reading was great. The recipe and playlist was a fun touch. The discussion questions were engaging and thought-provoking, without being too challenging. Recommend for anyone wanting to deepen their reading of this book.

Great book club questions! This is a must if you are reading this book and love discussion questions. Also, there’s a recipe in here so you need to read this!

Really cool guide for your own bookclub. I adore the playlist and the recipe wich connects the reader to the book even more.
Although it would be very handy if the book came with it.
Otherwise, i loved it and it is very practical.

This book club pack was very helpful. I was under the impression that it included a pdf of the book as well, but it did not. I'm not sure why it matters that this is "sponsored" by the publisher if there's no book. It was fine for what it was and helped our discussion about the book.

Really great questions, and lovely extras that would make a book group meeting even better. I love the printable bookmarks, and the other book recs.

After finishing this short-but-sweet kit I feel it added to the reading experience and provided lots of topics for discussion among readers.

The author's interview is really great. Casey McQuinston came across as down to earth and relatable in her answers and I loved the insight into her writing process.

I think content warnings are always appreciated. We can never be too prepared when starting a new novel and when it comes to triggers it's better to be overly aware.

The other elements in the book club kit, such as the playlist, further book recommendations and the recipe that would be perfect for an in-person book club.

The only thing that may not be successful is presuming people are attending in-person book clubs when in reality, social media and virtual book clubs are more popular and prevalent in the book community, especially since Covid-19. The digital space among readers has exploded so I think targeting the online community is very beneficial.

Love this kit! From the playlist to the recipe, everything is amazing I can not wait to use this club for my book club!

This is a great kit with lots of helpful material for book clubs, including discussion questions, an interview with the author, recommendations for similar books, and One Last Stop-themed bookmarks to print. It is a great starting point for discussing the book. I've taken inspiration from this kit, thanks!

I was incredibly tempted to just say OMG I LOVED THIS, but this deserves more than that. I enjoyed One Last Stop a lot when I first read it, but this kit was something extra I had no idea I needed. The questions made me analyze things about the book I hadn’t thought about. And I loved the book recommendations at the end.

This book club kit was one of it's kind! Apart from the discussion questions it included, for instance, a playlist lo listen to while reading, a recipe for a dish relevant to the story and printable bookmarks.

One of the most important aspects of book clubs is the possibility to discuss the novel which you are reading. To make the conversations easier, the questions provided are crucial – which this kit has pinned down perfectly, since the questions were relevant, interesting and unique.

I also appreciated that content warnings (divided into "on page" and "off page") were included.

I normally strongly dislike different time overlaps but of course I enjoyed it because Casey McQuiston is perfection. I am absolutely in love with Jane and I very much so relate to August so its pretty ideal to feel this way. I believed their love from the moment they met. I would read five more books on what their lives entail after One Last Stop. I.loved.every.single.character. This book blended a lot of different genres - sci-fy, mystery, romance and the imagery that each added was superb. So excited to read it again and again and again and have my heart explode with love nonstop.

I didn't care for the questions as they were mostly comprehension based. I did love the printable bookmarks and the recipes included, and Spotify playlist. It was such a unique touch.

This book club kit was amazing. I especially loved the author interview, letter, and printables, and the discussion questions were incredibly helpful in fostering discussion!

Great Book Club Kit! This kit provides a letter from the author, interview with the author, discussion questions for a book club, as well as suggestions on what to read next. Some of my favorite parts of the kit are the printable bookmarks and a playlist to go along with the book. By far the best part of the kit is the recipe for The Su Special, reading about the concoction made me want to try it, so this recipe will definitely be used!

Great way to get our book club going! Really enjoyed what the kit had to offer and we could use it to discuss the both and what points we connected more with the story and the characters.

I read this book back in the summer of this year, so seeing this arc for the book kit was a no brainer. It lays out the trigger warnings, discussions questions, inspiration behind the book, and other recommendations.
The font was pretty, and the layout was well organized.
The discussion questions are good for big questions on thinking about it on a deeper level. If it wasn’t for the sex scene, I figured this would work for a school, just depends on the regulations. But it would be good for a book club which was probably the intended audience.
